An inspiring series on freedom &
justice
sponsored by the Church & Society Committee
Sunday Morning at 10:30 am - in the
CHAPEL |
|
|
|

|
|
Rev. Gerry Harrison will lead this presentation
and discussion. "Forged by Fire" points to the resilience of the
church and people of faith as they dare to act with freedom and
unity to restore community, resist dominant norms, behaviors and
perceptions that justify hate based on race, ethnicity, nationality
or language. The intent is to inspire, educate and evoke collective
stories, in an exercise in speaking justice to the powers that
threaten to extinguish God's hope.
Join us as we see how the integration of
diverse persons sustains unity, community and hope.
